Donald Trump Jr. made waves on social media after sharing various posts mocking the brutal attack on Paul Pelosi — the husband of Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi (D-CA). Trump Jr. has now deleted those posts.
On Sunday night, he retweeted a picture of a “Paul Pelosi Halloween Costume” which depicted a pair of underwear and a hammer. Paul Pelosi, 82, was beaten with a hammer and is hospitalized with a fractured skull.
Pelosi’s attacker has a history of sharing right-wing conspiracy theories and grievances often shared by former President Donald Trump, including denouncing the House Jan. 6 committee, election and Covid-19 vaccine conspiracy theories, and content supportive of QAnon.
According to The Daily Beast, on Monday, Trump Jr. added to the “joke” and shared an image of two male Southpark characters in bed with a text
bubble saying “Uh, ah, yes Officer. I’m being attacked,” on his Instagram. This post has also been deleted.
